Hello,
I am working on to display map and position the marker using
ZIP code as search option. So is there any option in "Google Maps
JavaScript API v3 " to search Map using Zip code or to convert ZIP
code to Lat & Long.If some one guide me to resolve this, it will be
very helpful for me.

Thanks in advance

You can do this, but not directly. You would first need to geocode the
zipcode to get the LatLng, then place the marker with that LatLng. See
